1. If you became CRNA for the money did you end up......

   prelift replied to paramedic-RN's topic in CRNA

   money always plays somewhat of a factor and one should not be guilty of that. I don't think I would medicine for 50k per year for life, but it is a great and interesting job. More than likely people would not CRNA for 50k either, not when less stress...

2. B&M vs Online

   prelift replied to Owlgal's topic in NP Students

   I've read most of them. "Equal outcomes for high blood pressure, diabetes, high lipids, blah blah blah" Then it follows mortality rates, luckily most people don't die during 6 month long studies so yeah of course it is equal. Then in fine print at t...

3. B&M vs Online

   prelift replied to Owlgal's topic in NP Students

   It's ok tho. Only been in neuro residency one month and have had three nps on the hospital service consult me for confusion/AMS on patients with cirrhosis without even ordering NH3 lab. Not sure where their attending is but lol. And yes we get consu...

4. B&M vs Online

   prelift replied to Owlgal's topic in NP Students

   Shia owner. I don't even comment on what you said except to point out you stated two opposing statements in your post. What exactly do you want me to find evidence for related to that? The only studies done physician vs np are for the basic 5 diagn...

5. B&M vs Online

   prelift replied to Owlgal's topic in NP Students

   1. you are not in practice yet so the opinion on study vs provider ability is not worth a grain of salt 2. if you are at a for profit online np school you are probably not learning what you need to learn. 3. the studies you refer to only count like 5...

6. Antagonistic NP Article

   prelift replied to Dodongo's topic in NP

   Chiros can be huge scam artists. If they advertise they can fix anything besides neck and back pan run from their lies. They can go to jail for saying they are medical doctors.

   prelift replied to Owlgal's topic in NP Students

   It's pretty pathetic people can do 2 or whatever years at some schools doing discussion board posts then 500 clinical hours and get prescriptive rights

8. B&M vs Online

   prelift replied to Owlgal's topic in NP Students

   Lol you say prior nursing experience had a negative correlation then later in your post you say it helps. Please quit debating.

9. If you became CRNA for the money did you end up......

   prelift replied to paramedic-RN's topic in CRNA

   lol have to shadow one before you dump your life into a lifetime of sitting in the OR, less patient contact than most other specialties, and pumping drugs. One surgery rotation and one anesthesia rotation and I was like "nah brah ill pass." If you en...

10. What to do CRNA or NP decision time!

    prelift replied to 4263people's topic in NP Students

    At your age I would try management opportunities. Having outside experience with other types of work is often more useful than the career nurse in nursing going up into management.

11. What do you prefer to be called?

    prelift replied to Alexxoxox's topic in Doctoral

    The whole doctor title is lame anyway and more less provides discourse between patients and their provider. If they call me by my first name thats fine, I could care less. If a nurse does it out of spite I would not like it though, but if we are chil...

12. Do you ever regret becoming a nurse?

    prelift replied to hs276009's topic in General Nursing

    It taught myself some social skills back in the day otherwise yeah didn't like it at all. Being the only dude on a floor of middle aged females was not very pleasant. Especially when on the days you worked they all had back issues and could not lift ...

13. Hospitalist NP Certification ever be likely?

    prelift replied to Bumashes's topic in NP

    The fact they still do not have one year of basic sciences in the curriculum and then some generalist clinicals and then a "fellowship" year for whichever NP specialty one would like to perform in still beats me. Probably a money issue since why pay ...

14. Psychiatric NP

    prelift replied to xtl311's topic in Advanced

    A formal education is psych care is pretty broad of a statement. Getting a few lectures over psychiatry does not promote someone to uber nurse psychiatrist status. If one considers psych to be mostly just handing out SSRI and handling kids on ADHD, a...

15. Psychiatric NP

    prelift replied to xtl311's topic in Advanced

    Most physicians are wise enough to not practice outside of his or her scope. For an APRN to do so is asking for a lawyer thomping.
